Tomorrow is Bungie day; enjoy free virtual crap! [Update] photo

Tomorrow just so happens to be 07/07/07. Two things are going to happen because of that. A storm of people are going to go buy Lotto tickets, you know, because EVERYONE'S lucky number is 7. More importantly to you though, is that tomorrow is also Bungie Day Extravaganza. The number 7 has played a big roll in the Bungie universe and since this year's Bungie Day is on the year 2007, it's just extra special to team Bungie.

July 7th has come to be known as "Bungie Day" amongst our fan community and this year is extra special on account of it actually falling in a year ending with 7. If you're new to our fan community, do some digging to find out the rich history of Bungie and the number 7 and you'll see why 7/7/07 has special meaning within our family.

From 2:00 AM to midnight O'clock tomorrow, you'll be able to score some free ... somethings. They won't say exactly what it is other than this VERY SUBTLE CLUE:

" ... think something of a more decorative nature."

Oh don't mind me, I'm just being a tad sarcastic. Unlike my fellow writer Alex, (who doesn't like Halo at all because he's stuck in his Retro little world), I'm looking forward to whatever Bungie dumps on us. Mainly because whatever we're getting is also a collectors item and you can only get it in the time given. My only question now is, why 2:00 AM to 12:00 AM Bungie? Shouldn't it have been from 7:00 AM to 7:00 PM? COME ON BUNGIE! CONSISTENCY!

[Update: OK, so it's just a theme and Gamerpics. Way to kill the suspense Frankie.]

Damn it, I'm home for the weekend and don't have access to my 360 until Sunday. I hope it's nothing spectacular...although I'm guessing it's probably just a Halo 3 theme or something.

In case some of you are actually wondering about this...I give you... a quote:

"To celebrate, we’re throwing a little treat onto Marketplace tomorrow for free. Nothing stupendous, but a nifty theme and Gamerpics."

Actually, I just made that up. Or did I?

But here is a real quote: "I'm looking forward to whatever Bungie dumps on us." ...Dumps. I like it. Sense not made heh/ toodrednusim

They're giving out phone cards, so you can call your friends to let them know that you're no longer a part of society, but instead an elitist group known as Halo Players.

Or maybe 360 themes.

don't all themes pretty much blow hard and ultimately hinder any visibility to your dashboard? thats how all of the ones i've put up have been, causing me to return to the standard background each time.

If it makes you feel better WiiSucks, I don't think your a tool. Just a suggestion... give up on caring about what others think about you on the internet. There is no accountability and people in general aren't nice. Just FYI.

From this page, look at this bit of information about one of the armor variants:

"The MJOLNIR/V variant was developed and tested at the UNSC facilities in Lister, Aigburth, Ganymede; integrating feedback gathered from the Summa Deep Space Incident."
